$200 is way too much for LEGOs. Most of that price comes strictly from that Star Wars logo printed on the box. However...I'd much rather my kids play with LEGOs than sit and play video games all day. I'm about ready to take my 10 year olds 3DS and throw it in the trash. After I've smashed it with a hammer. At least you can be truly creative with LEGOs rather than always following some programmed script. Even with a kit like this that is meant to produce one specific thing, you can at least use the parts to build something else too.
